DETAILED DESCRIPTION
An internal combustion engine 1 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying figures. As shown in Figure 1, the internal combustion engine 1 is installed in a vehicle 3 having a plurality of wheels 4. The vehicle 3 may, for example, be an automobile. In the present embodiment, the internal combustion engine 1 is illustrated in a longitudinal (North South) configuration in the vehicle
3. It will be appreciated that the present invention is also applicable when the internal combustion engine 1 is mounted in a transverse (East West) configuration in the vehicle 3.
As shown in Figure 2, the internal combustion engine 1 comprises a cylinder block 5, a cylinder head 6, a charge cooler 7, a throttle assembly 8, an intake manifold 9 and an exhaust manifold 10. The internal combustion engine 1 comprises a plurality of cylinders 11 n formed in the cylinder block 5 and the cylinder head 6. The cylinder block 5 comprises bores 12-n and the cylinder head 6 comprises corresponding cylinder head recesses 13-n. The cylinders 11-n each have a central axis Pn (extending perpendicular to the plane of the page in Figure 2). A piston (not shown) is disposed in each cylinder 11-n and, in use, reciprocates along the central axis Pn. In the present embodiment, the internal combustion engine 1 comprises four (4) cylinders 11-1, 11-2, 11-3, 11-4 arranged along a longitudinal axis X of the internal combustion engine 1 in a single bank. The internal combustion engine 1 in the present embodiment may be referred to as an in-line four (I4) engine. In use, fuel and air are introduced into combustion chambers (not shown) formed by the bores 12-n and the cylinder head recesses 13-n. The fuel is combusted in the combustion chambers to propel the pistons in conventional manner. The exhaust gases from the combustion process are expelled through the exhaust manifold 10. The intake manifold 9 is disposed on a first side IN of the internal combustion engine 1, referred to herein as the “intake side”. The exhaust manifold 10 is disposed on a second side EX of the internal combustion engine 1, referred to herein as the “exhaust side”. Air is introduced through the intake manifold 9; and exhaust gases are expelled through the exhaust manifold 10.
The internal combustion engine 1 is a forced induction engine and comprises a turbocharger 14 operable to deliver compressed air to the intake manifold 9. As described herein, the turbocharger 14 is integrated with the internal combustion engine 1. The turbocharger 14 comprises a compressor 15 and a turbine 16. The compressor 15 comprises a rotatable compressor wheel 17 disposed in a chamber (not shown) formed in a compressor housing
18. The compressor 15 may, for example, comprise a centrifugal compressor. In use, the compressor 15 pumps compressed air to the charge cooler 7 for cooling prior to introduction into the intake manifold 9. The turbine 16 comprises a rotatable turbine wheel 19 disposed in a chamber (not shown) formed in a turbine housing 20. The turbine 16 may, for example, comprise a radial turbine. The turbine wheel 19 is configured to convert energy from the exhaust gases into a mechanical force to drive the compressor wheel 17. As illustrated in Figure 1, the compressor 15 and the turbine 16 are disposed on opposing sides of the internal combustion engine 1. The compressor 15 is disposed on the inlet side IN of the internal combustion engine 1. The turbine 16 is disposed on the exhaust side EX of the internal combustion engine 1.
The compressor housing 18 may be fastened directly to the cylinder head 6 on the intake side IN of the internal combustion engine 1. The compressor housing 18 may be fastened using mechanical fasteners, for example. In a variant, the compressor housing 18 (or part thereof) may be formed integrally with the cylinder head 6. The compressor housing 18 may be cast with the cylinder head 6, for example using an appropriate sand cast core. As illustrated in Figure 3, the turbine housing 20 may be fastened directly to the cylinder head 6 on the exhaust side EX of the internal combustion engine 1. The turbine housing 20 may be fastened directly to the exhaust manifold 10 using mechanical fasteners, for example. In a variant (not shown), the turbine housing 20 (or part thereof) may be formed integrally with the exhaust manifold 10. The turbine housing 20 may be cast with the exhaust manifold 10, for example using an appropriate sand cast core. It will be understood that the exhaust manifold 10 may be formed integrally with the cylinder head 6; or may be formed as a separate component mounted to the cylinder head 6.
The internal combustion engine 1 comprises means for transmitting torque from the turbine 16 to the compressor 15. In the present embodiment, the compressor 15 and the turbine 16 are mechanically connected to each other by a connecting assembly 21. In use, the turbine wheel 19 is rotated by the exhaust gases expelled from the exhaust manifold 10. Since the compressor 15 and the turbine 16 are mechanically connected to each other, the rotation of the turbine wheel 19 drivingly rotates the compressor wheel 17. The rotation of the compressor wheel 17 draws air into the compressor housing 18 and pumps compressed air into the charge cooler 7. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, a blow-off valve 22 (also known as a dump valve) is provided to release excess pressure. An actuator 23, such as a solenoid, is provided to control the blow-off valve 22 in dependence on a control signal received from an electronic control unit (not shown).
As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the connecting assembly 21 comprises a rotatable shaft 25 extending through the cylinder head 6. The rotatable shaft 25 extends along a transverse axis Y substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis X of the internal combustion engine
1. In the present embodiment, the rotatable shaft 25 extends substantially perpendicular to the central axis Pn of the cylinders 11-n. The shaft 25 is supported by first and second rotary bearings 27, 28 disposed at the respective ends thereof. The first and second rotary bearings 27, 28 are sealed to prevent leakage from the oil chamber 26. As shown in Figure 4, the shaft 25 extends through the cylinder head 6. In particular, the shaft 25 extends through an oil chamber 26 (comprising two adjacent sections) formed in the cylinder head 6. In the present embodiment, the shaft 25 is disposed above the cylinder head recesses 13-n.
The turbocharger 14 is integrated into the internal combustion engine 1. An isometric view of the internal combustion engine 1 is shown in Figure 5 illustrating the orientation of the shaft
25. The shaft 25 connecting the compressor 15 and the turbine 16 is disposed between the second and third cylinders 11-2, 11-3. A side elevation of the internal combustion engine 1 is shown in Figure 6. In the arrangement illustrated in Figure 6, the shaft 25 is disposed at the interface between the cylinder block 5 and the cylinder head 6. In a variant the shaft 25 may be rotated mounted in the cylinder block 5 or in the cylinder head 6.
The turbine 16 is positioned on the exhaust side EX of the internal combustion engine 1 proximal to the exhaust manifold 10 to maximise the usage of exhaust gases. Heat loss from the exhaust gases may be reduced or minimised to promote operation of aftertreatment systems (not shown) disposed in the exhaust system downstream of the turbine 16. The compressor 15 is positioned on the intake side IN of the internal combustion engine proximal to the intake. The air intake losses from an outlet of the compressor 15 to the Water Charged Air Cooler (WCAC) may be reduced or minimised. It will be understood, that, at least in certain embodiments, the integrated turbocharger 14 may enable more efficient use of exhaust gases in the turbine 16 on the exhaust side EX; and reduced losses from the compressor 15 on the intake side IN. By positioning the turbine 16 and the compressor 18 on opposing sides of the internal combustion engine 1, the need for connecting air ducts extending from one side of the internal combustion engine 1 to the other may be avoided. At least in certain embodiments, this may reduce energy losses.
It will be appreciated that various modifications may be made to the embodiment(s) described herein without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
